Church news for the week beginning 31st July 2016

Today’s Bible Talk

Today Jodie begins a six week series on “Two ways to Live”, with the first talk ‘God as loving ruler and creator’, from Genesis chapter 1 verses 26 to 28, and Revelation chapter 4 verses 6 to 11.

You, me and the Bible course

At the same time as our ‘Two Ways to Live’ talk series we’re going to be going together through the workbook ‘You, me and the Bible’. If your small group leader’s not doing it then you can grab a copy for just $5 and do it with a friend.

5pm Service Dinner

To help cover costs for the dinner after the 5pm service, we have increased the contribution per person to $3. The $10 maximum per family remains the same.

Men’s Dinner

This Tuesday night, 2nd August is our next Men’s Dinner. Our speaker is Dr Noel Weeks. 6.30pm at the Central Hotel Function Room. Bookings essential. Phone 0439 561 373 or email mensdinner@oakflatsanglican.com

Seeking a new assistant minister

The search is underway for a new Assistant Minister at our church. Please pray that we find the ideal person, and please consider whether you might be able to increase your regular giving to help us reach the giving target that’s needed.

Giving update

Each week we need to receive [olimometer_target id=3] in order to meet our commitments. In the last calendar month, our average weekly giving was [olimometer_progress id=3], leaving a gap of [olimometer_remaining id=3].

[olimometer id=3]

Up to the end of the last calendar month we needed to have received [olimometer_target id=1]. Compared to that total we received [olimometer_progress id=1], leaving a gap of [olimometer_remaining id=1].

Electronic giving is a great way to give! It helps us prayerfully plan our giving, and then the bank will help us keep that commitment, even when we may be unable to attend.
